Can roches eat through wood

Cockroaches do not eat through wood in the same way that termites do, as they primarily feed on organic matter like food scraps, paper, and glue. However, they can damage wood by nesting in it or feeding on materials like the glue in particleboard or the cellulose in paper products. If there’s deteriorating wood due to moisture or decay, cockroaches may be attracted to it, but they do not consume solid wood.
